First they copy the phone. Then they copy the advertising. And now, they copy the pairing screen. Surprising the lengths that Xiaomi goes to clone Apple’s products. It’s clear that they just don’t care about what they make.

@UnboxTherapy It’s not a big threat to Samsung and Apple, because Oppo and OnePlus are just clone manufacturers. They don’t innovate, and because of that they will only really be successful in developing markets.

I'd always wanted to try was using HDR for user interface details. The sparkles that appear while loading an article are actually rendered "brighter" than screen white! (Turns out it's as simple as setting any UIView's compositingFilter to "plusL")

You can get a sense for iPad’s potential when you look at apps like iPhoto and GarageBand. Software that feels fun. It was never supposed to be about “clipboard managers” and “resizable windows” and “file system access” There will always be the Mac for that.
